THE CONSCIOUS AND THE UNCONSCIOUS MIND
Our mind comprises the conscious and the unconscious mind and they both have very different functions.
The conscious mind is our thinking mind. It is the logical part of our mind and thinks quantitatively using numbers, words and logical and sequential thinking.The conscious mind is everything that we are aware of at that moment. It can be the words you are reading now, the thoughts in your head, the temperature of the room. We make conscious decisions daily from choosing what to have for breakfast or what to do at the weekend.
The conscious mind is also very analytical - it questions information that it is
given to test if it is correct or incorrect according to our experiences. For example,
if someone tells you their opinion on a topic, you will question it and depending
on your previous experiences, will either agree or disagree with them.
The unconscious mind however works very differently in that we are unaware of it working in a conscious way. The unconscious part of the mind is the part that actually does the majority of the work in regulating our physical, mental and emotional well being. We may consciously decide to lift up our cup of tea but the actual ‘job’ is left to our unconscious mind, from relaxing and contracting the relevant arm muscles to judging the distance of the cup.
Our unconscious mind uses images, memories, feelings, intuition, dreams, abstract and non sequential thinking and is literal in nature. If we tell the unconscious mind that it is relaxed, it will accept the suggestion and accordingly become relaxed.
As the unconscious mind controls our habits, behaviours, emotions it would make sense then that in order to make changes to these, we would need to do so at an unconscious level. Furthermore, it is more willing to accept positive suggestions without question, unlike our critical conscious mind.
Hypnotherapy relaxes our conscious mind thus opening up communication with our unconscious
mind, allowing us to make lasting changes in the deepest part of our minds. I am
sure you have at some time used your will power in order to give up something or
change a particular behaviour -
Furthermore. Hypnotherapy is safe and natural and brings about life changing results.
